This article has a section on 'editions' (SE, ME, etc). But nothing on the differences between versions. Java 1.7 (and 1.8, though not yet finalized) is in some ways quite a different languages from 1.0. Does anyone think there ought to be a 'Versions' section withbrief notes on the main changes (or perhaps just the language changes) in each version? These could include links to information on the relevant topic elsewhere on WP.
Please add the page "List of Java Frameworks" to the "see also" section.2003:C0:873B:8B00:E03F:D261:D63C:AB57 (talk)10:35, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Any background on the "mascot"? Who made it? What is it supposed to look like? Why "Duke"? --BjKa (talk)11:51, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's unfortunate that this was removed. While the syntax can be relocated to a different wiki page, I believe it's valuable to have a small example of a Java program here.87.173.237.209 (talk)14:21, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article currently saysSun Microsystems released the first public implementation as Java 1.0 in 1996 yet the authority it cites saysSince its announcement in May 1995, Java has been widely used. Therefore I am not sure when the first public implementation was released.Sam Tomato (talk)05:18, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The announcement was in May 1995. And the public release was in 1996. There is no conflict? -- --2A10:BCC6:871:0:9F3:9B68:7E53:AAFF (talk)11:02, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
